(Bruce Lewis) For some time, OurDoings has been keeping your photos safe by doing daily backups to Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3). They, in turn, keep backups of the backups. Now it's even better. Starting this weekend, we're not just backing up once per day.

We now have a backup process that runs all day, every day. If you visit the page for a particular photo (where "photo.html" appears in your address bar), you'll see something like "Backed up 2009-11-23" at the bottom. This message disappears if you rotate or edit the photo, since it now needs to be backed up again. Then it will reappear once the new version gets backed up.
